    Building youth PRS rifle.

    I’m midway through a similar project I’m using my old krg X-ray. My 10yr old daughter can get behind it well, my 7yr old son not quite as well but manageable from fixed position I tried to keep it medium weight, so my 10yr old can move it around, so I went medium Palma barrel at 26”. I plan...

    Xtriii scope ring height?

    Putting a 3-18 xtriii on an archimedes with a 30 Moa rail Looking at American rifle company rings. Would high rings (32mm-1.26”) be sufficient? Would medium rings work? (28mm) I tried the mil-rad.com calculator and it says it will work but “just barely with a flat top. .3” Barrel is a...

    Short barrel - light 6.5 hunting rifle

    I plan to get another barrel for my kids archimedes for hunter, probably 16-18”. What is the lightest profile you can thread for that length? They will use either my TB dominus or the KGM R30 for hunting. For white tails I’m torn between a short 6mm or 6.5. Main goal is reliable, ethical kills...

    Weapons in Ukraine conflict

    I know they have been fighting for a long time but I recently started paying close attention and have browsed them web for stories, images, videos of the “front” to understand the conditions. I was very surprised to see many brands that we discuss on the hide being employed in eastern Ukraine...

    Krg X-ray/bravo upgrade choice

    The back order doesn’t bother me too much, I’ll call Rick this week and see how long it will take for the next shipment to arrive from Europe The krg is also in stock So I’m not worried about shipping, I can’t use anything until nearly April anyway because of work

    Krg X-ray/bravo upgrade choice

    I’m leaning KRG but the gcp will color match my green X-ray, I’ll probably have to ask the wife and the 10yr old daughter which one, both should preform well

    Krg X-ray/bravo upgrade choice

    Gonna upgrade my X-ray soon as I convert it to a kids 223 I want to upgrade the polymer forend to something better and I’ve narrowed down my choices to two primary choices. They are the same price and are similar in features. There is a 10oz weight difference with the krg being lighter. I...

    No budget lightweight hog tripod

    Not sure how light weight it needs to be but my RRS 34L with an anvil 30 is remarkable It can level anywhere, I can sit, kneel, stand or go prone with it, as can my kids (7 and 10) It also works for big tall dudes, I’m 5’11” and the apex fully extended is over my head meaning a 7’ dude could...

    Short action Elk rounds

    You are right, because we suck and shooting and are fat, but working out is hard and pizza and beer is good

    Short action Elk rounds

    So this thread can be summed up as follows: 1. A few near trolls that insist a 6mm is good, and the 6.5’s are actually better than a 300wm for killing elk 2. A good population that is arguing that 6’s and 6.5’s are good enough and shot placement, bullet selection and knowing your own limits...

    MUZZLE BRAKE

    I picked up the area 419 hellfire match during the Black Friday sales, gonna shoot Monday on and see what a difference it makes, I had a seemless brake from LRI which did help, but the hellfire match is way bigger and I expect it will make a noticeable difference

    308 "beanfield" loads to cull deer

    ELD-ms work well, they tend to grenade a bit on impact, I found copper blended nicely into the goo that was a set of deer lungs Just behind the shoulder also got a nice pass through and a large exit hole
